Do you have the printer working in Windows? The P1102w has an interesting dual-mode feature. When you first turn it on, it acts like a CD-ROM drive so you can install the driver software. Then it turns into a regular printer. AFAIK, this can only be done from Windows.

Do you have it working in Slacko as a USB printer? I suspect not, because it doesn't sound like you have installed a Linux driver for it yet.

Have you read the How-To on Page 1? There are several choices listed for HP printers, but your P1102w works with the foo2xxx driver PET. You need to get it working as a USB printer before you can deal with networking.

The new versions of CUPS in Puppies like Slacko are often slow to detect network printers. You may need to run "Find New Printers" several times. But if you know its IP address, you can do it manually with the socket:// protocol.

I own a P1102w and it works fine with foo2xxx in USB mode. But I have never set it up with wireless, so I cannot guarantee how it will work.

[Edit] I set up my P1102w in XP as a wifi device. But no CUPS I tried was able to auto-detect it. So I manually installed it using AppSocket/HPJetDirect and foo2xxx. It worked fine.Last edited by rcrsn51 on Sun 09 Dec 2012, 15:13; edited 2 times in total
